The Rooms of Our Own project was supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund and delivered in partnership with Manchester Histories. It’s aim was to uncover and explore the organisational archive of the Pankhurst Trust from the 1970s to 2014.
These films are a series of short animations made by young people from across Greater Manchester during workshops that took place at the Pankhurst Centre over the summer. This included young people from RECLAIM, a youth leadership and social change organisation that strives to amplify the voices of working class young people. The films include stop motion animation to visualise excerpts of the oral history interviews with the women who helped shape the Pankhurst Centre in the 1980s.
